I’ll go one further: zero private money for campaigns (whether from donors, from the candidates themselves, from PACs, from corporations, from unions, etc...).

Yes, this is the issue, not Franken. The wealthy donors controlling the conversation on both sides of the aisle is a massive problem to me. Until the country can figure out how to run candidates for elections without spending millions upon millions of dollars this issue is not going to be addressed. Money continues to

What a ridiculous person. Yeah poor Franken who has reporters at his beck and call wasn’t able to speak for himself? What horse shit. He’s not our savior and there are worthy people to replace him. Get the fuck over it already and focus on new leadership. It’s like a fetish for some people to prop up semi progressive

i feel like i should start a Non-Apology Jar. like a Swear Jar, i put a dollar in it every time i see some stupid fucking racist/sexist/homophobic/garden-variety asshole make some fucking “i’m sorry if you were offended” non-apology. it may very well fund my retirement (and might be the only way to do it, frankly).

No people of color (or diversity in general) in those jobs? Or if they are, being overruled by a mostly white management.

It is still a very racially charged term. In Europe black soccer players and even politicians have had bananas thrown at them fairly recently. You can’t ignore that history because kids and animals = cute.

Fair or not, it’s something you have to be cognizant of. My little one is my little monkey, but there is no way I’d put her in any monkey related clothing. It may be cute, but it’s too loaded with racial undertones.

This is such an avoidable issue, I don’t even understand how you can be stupid enough to make it. Just put that shirt on a kid of literally any other ethnicity. That’s it! Problem solved.

Counterpoint: this country has a history of violence towards African Americans and you need to be sensistive to such realities. Sorry if in your white bubble something as racist as calling a black child a monkey is okay to you

After that.....this happened.

I can’t imagine anyone having sex with this man willingly.

We have taken steps…to prevent recurrence of corned beef sandwiches in future flights

My favorite story about Young is his heart rate. All astronauts except young had really high heat rates during launch - I mean like 150's or so. His plugged along at 70. During the lunar decent Neil Armstrong’s was in the 190's. Young’s was around 90. The epitome of cool under stress.

She looks like Anne Hathaway morphing into The Joker.

He may very well be a dick. I don’t know. But not wanting to upend his whole life and maybe their kid’s life and relationships /friendships because the woman who cheated on you wants to be on the batman show isn’t dickish.

Trump is president and Paris Hilton doesn’t look so bad in comparison to the resident famous-for-nothing-celebs. This simulation is not working. Shut it down and start a new one

Trump’s speaking at Camp David right now.

They both speak as if they were trying to rearrange the placement of their teeth with their lips and air out their uvulas, simultaneously and discreetly.

Based on information I’ve gleaned from reddit (sorry) and an interview that Amy did recently, supposedly Margarita and Michael as well as many of the other designers had all complained to the producers about the cheating, but the producers didn’t do anything so that they’d have a more dramatic runway - which they got.

I feel so old. Raise your hand if you were watching season 3 when Keith was kicked off for pattern books!
